This got me thinking. Clearly tradition is out the window and it's all about the money, how long before schools start selling their mascots? Like the fighting Irish mascot wearing a Guinness T-shirt. Texas could promote the Texas Longhorn Steakhouse.
Yea, I get it, I am just contrasting this thread with the other threads that craps all over this league, or insists we deserve better or that we are better than our conference mates.
On the one hand we deserve to be in the B1G or the ACC but on the other we are not dominating our current league.
Yea, I am confused, I always thought the goal was to win the AAC tournament. Winning the league seems superfluous. I could see if we were in a league that gets tons of invites but it is not so we need to win the tournament.
People around here like to complain about the AAC but have we ever won it for football or the tournament for BB? Shouldn't we be setting our sites on dominating this league?
Yea, I just don't see how this ends well for us. I have resigned myself to be a fan of the team regardless of who they play. Don't get me wrong, I come here to check to see if my wildest dreams come true but it is a little like stalkng an ex.
I hear you. I think I'm still spoiled over the Big East invite. I think it made me, and others, feel special.
In reality we are not and we will only get "called up" as part of a desperate backfill for a dying league; hated for what we represent by those who feel we diminish their prestige by being associated with us.
I thought that comment was tongue in cheek.
What would the Big "Creme De La Creme" look like?
Standford, Cali, Oregon State, Washington State, Duke, Wake Forest, NC State, BC, Syracuse.... Who am I missing?
We got dumped about 10 years ago and it sucked. I felt like the rest of the college football world was - sucks for you. Now it sucks for everyone not in the B10/SEC.
